We'd like to say "Good luck!" to Jas and Marek. We think the North Pole expedition is a really good idea, and we hope it gives inspiration to people all over the world.

We have written a lesson about Aimee Mullins. She is disabled too, but she is brave and confident and nothing is impossible for her. We hope that Jas is equally successful, and we wish him good luck for the future.

When Aimee Mullins was born on 20th July 1975, there was a problem with her feet. At the age of one, she had an operation. Doctors amputated her feet and part of her legs. Aimee didn't want a wheelchair. She wanted to move around more, so she learned to walk when she was two. After that, Aimee learned to run, swim and play football.

Life at school wasn't always easy, but she enjoyed her teenage years. She played sports and she was a happy girl. As she became older, she became more confident.

Aimee can do a lot of different things. She is a fantastic athlete. In August 1996 she went to the Atlanta Paralympic Games in the USA, and won three medals. In 1999, she starred in a London fashion show for clothes designer Alexander McQueen. After that, she became a model. Aimee is now a TV and film actress too.
